This American Lager has a laid-back personality and pairs well with just about anything. Hops bring a mix of woody, green, floral and fruit notes with subtle herb and spice character. North Fork is a sessionable beer with lower alcohol content for a quick, smooth run. Pack plenty for your post river run refreshment.

Can. Milk, light lemon, biscuit malt, and straw aroma. Slightly hazy golden yellow with large white head. Mildly sweet light lemon, creamy biscuit malt, and mildly bitter herbal hay flavor. Nice body. Pretty good.

Draft pour pint at The Collective. Parched from a long day at work, this beer seemed to be a good fit. Pours a pale clear golden color with almost no head. Crisp flavor, apple hints, am refreshing. Well executed lager.

Can from Brewforia. Pours lemony gold with a slight white head. Mixed bag of hops. Sort of "bois". Med minus body. Flavor is very light pale malt with some mixed hop - even a little spiciness. I can imagine about any flavor here, but nothing seems to dominate. Gotta be one of the tastier pale lagers around.

12oz can pours out a criap straw topped with a white head. Aroma is cereal malts grass sweetness and some floral notes. Taste is as the nose with some nice cereal malts a little floral bit and some fruit on the end. Pretty good for a lager.good work guys.

Growler from Payette. Although cereal in nature, its crisp and clean and heads above the macrobrews. Aroma is cereal grains (of course) and a hint of sour, but it has a nice fluffy head and decent lacing. Taste is light, bread, crackers, sourdough. clean and simple.

On tap at the brewery Hazy golden with a wispy off white head and spotty lacing. Light grain cereal aroma and a soft malt flavor. The hops are a bit prominent for the style but that gives it a little bite that it needs to keep from being boring.

12 oz can. Pours hazy sunshine yellow with a medium white head with good retention; leaves a little lace. Aroma is corny, lemony, bready. Taste starts out lightly sweet before turning quite bitter and lingering that way long after the swallow. Medium-bodied, prickly carbonation. This really has not much in common with your average pale lager. Its bitterness and general hop character backed by noticeable bready malt make this much more interesting. This tastes the way lagers should taste. There’s more to it than the carbonated water the big brewers pump out.
